Sean Conway

Sean Conway is a world-record-setting ultra-endurance athlete, adventurer and author - and the first person to complete his Grand Slam of endurance. He was the first to swim the length of Britain, and has also cycled and run its length.

His other feats include completing the world’s longest triathlon, setting the fastest solo unsupported cycle across Europe, cycling around the world, and completing 105 full-distance triathlons on 105 consecutive days.

In his books, Sean shares what it takes to do difficult things: set ambitious goals, prepare well, adapt when plans change and keep going when the going gets tough.
